MAP28: Ex Nihilo is the twenty-eighth map of Hell Revealations. It was designed by tonytheparrot and Monsieur E, and uses the music track "Mist Ache" by Lee Jackson. The par time is 28:00.

Description[edit]

According to the Hell Revealations infopack:

A grand behemoth, an unrelenting gauntlet that will push you to your absolute limits. Don’t make a ‘Mist Ache’ and only tackle it when you are 100% ready for it. This map doesn’t fuck around. That said, we absolutely love this map, it’s our most ambitious map to date and I think we succeeded in what we wanted to accomplish. Btw, thanks Arsinikk for the opening view!
Size: Very Large
Difficulty: Very Hard
